Ahhh fond memories....
 
My first car was an Austin A40 in Cor Blimey flat out it could hit 45mph down hill but needed a push up steep hills, had a three foot high floor mounted stick shift and the shocks created a constant hip hop effect, but who cared, it only cost ten bob to fill it up and was my first car and to me, it was beautiful. Cheers, tin-man
